As a magical holiday gift from me to you:

Enjoy the now fully translated unofficial parental guide "The Book of FinFin" for the virtual pet "Fin Fin on Teo the Magic Planet"! 🐬🎄✨

It was originally made by a now defunct German manual publisher exclusively for the German-speaking market, running on Windows 3.1 & Windows 95.

However, you can also run it in your current browser of choice by opening the START.HTM file and adjusting the size of your browser window by slimming it down slightly, so the background image doesn't repeat. That way you get the intended experience without running an old version of Windows!

Download both the English Translation and the original German manual in one .ZIP file by clicking here!

EDIT: huge shoutout to EMGE (the person who runs finfin.de, the fan-run FinFin homepage) who has now archived my translation of "The Book of FinFin" and put it up for viewing on the site!

Now you can read the manual in your browser without needing to download the files onto your harddrive!

View it here under Gallery > Other Products!

Special thanks to everyone the "Fin Fin Fans!" Discord for being excited and patient with me, as I worked on this project single-handedly for the past few weeks.

And of course, also a big Thank You to @wayneradiotv, for introducing me to this silly little critter in the first place through his streams of the game, which lead to me searching for old FinFin media and finding this old CD manual by pure chance.

Did NOT expect to make this for Pride Month but hey! I made these Chibi Pride Catbois featuring GeeBees (Gordon x Benry x Barney)

Gordon - Tanktop (Achillean Flag, masc loving masc), Socks (FTM Trans Flag)

Cat Design based on a Cashmere/Longhair Bengal

Benry - Binder top (Demisexual Flag), Socks (Genderfluid Flag)

Cat Design based on Tuxedo

Barney - Tanktop (Demisexual(see Benry)-Gay Flags in one), Socks (Cisgender Flag)

Cat Design based on Tuxedo

And since this is the start of the gayest month, I'll also add the GAYEST Half-Life Freemanverse-Calhounverse AU I know:

GORGEOUS FREEMAN AND BEAUTY CALHOUN ^^

They were fun to draw but I didn't watch Gorgeous Freeman. I had headcanons based on assumptions, these two beautiful yet insane people are the way they are thanks to CrystalQueer Water, Beauty's pronouns are "she/he", is Japanese-American, and both Gorgeous and Beauty dyed their hair pink to help Beauty out of his depression (because they can be sappy while also sassy assholes). Beauty's design was inspired by @newtafterdark's Beauty Calhoun design. Also, I did something stupid and now I made an alternate character who is technically from the Gorgeous Freeman AU^^;

One more piece of art that is suggestive with some artistic nudity, so under the "Keep Reading" here's a cake that some idiot ruined and took the strawberry.

There's more on the way because I want to make this blog alive after long inactivity ^^;;;

So, Have A Nice Day!!! ^^

Here's the idiot!

[spitefulpumpkin]

@newtafterdark diving into his old stuff sparked me to dig up my old Animexx account and - OH BOI.

my brain worked differently during the early 2000s.

@tentacledeity: hey look, white Cort jumpscare.

[qhazomb]

hey, remember how i mentioned that when my headcanon benrey goes into what is basically his version of Devil Gun Mode, he likes to get a lil’ wild with his shape-shifting? i decided to illustrate that... by having him turn into other people’s benreys! specifically, their monster forms. because monster benrey is best benrey. from left to right, first row: @kogo-dogo‘s ‘oozerey’ of Human Resources Violation fame. the (not a) man, the myth, the gay horse monster. @newtafterdark‘s kaiju benrey, ‘triple b (big blue bastard)’ from their pacific rim crossover AU that also involves gordon being in a metal band. which is awesome. @black-mesa-slut-voice‘s ‘benrey1′ from their ‘u1au’ setting. originally i was going to draw their errantel/swap au benrey, but then i saw the u1au design and i just can’t say no to a good worm monster. second row: @spiritedsketch‘s old monster benrey who i’ve just been referring to as ‘mr. popcorn.’ they've since repurposed their headcanon benrey into an OC, but i felt it’d be a shame to not include this sick skeledragon here. @memeofthecrop‘s no eyed boy! i really dig the exposed bone snout. their benrey actually has a torn ear, but mine didn’t feel like replicating that part when mimicking him. :P @blueberryjamsart‘s funky surreal lion benrey whom i know nothing about but he is a fucked-up lion monster so i love him. so.... many.... colours..........

[newtafterdark]

At the news of "HLVRAI 2" possibly happening soon, my brain was instantly grabbed by thoughts about my Metalhead!Gordon AU.

I hadn't drawn this goober in a while, and what better time than now?

[arsgoeteia]

You know, with the tags we have left on each other's art of Gordon so far (Gorgeous & Metalhead respectively), I feel like we're just sitting here, exchanging drawings of 2 men who make us go "AAAAAAAAAAAA!!!" & neither of us show any signs of stopping to do that anytime soon. :'D

YES IT’S SO WONDERFUL we really just love this guy!!!!!! here is some fanart for u :]
